In this article we will discuss steps to Setup NAVUserPassword in Business Central on-prem.
NavUserPassword is an authentication method that's handled by Business Central Server, but isn't based on Windows users or Active Directory. Each user is set up with a username and password that's configured inside Business Central only. The user is prompted for username/password credentials when they start the client.
#msdyn365bc, #credentialtype
To achieve this, we will go through 3 steps -
Task 1: Set up your Business Central user account with a password.
- Open the Business Central client.
- Go to the Users page, then open your user account.
- Under Business Central Password Authentication, choose the Review or update the value for password. button next to the Password field.
- Enter the password in the Password and Confirm Password fields, then choose OK.
- Make sure to assign required permissions.
- or you can use below powershell cmdlet to add user and permissions.
- New-NAVServerUser -ServerInstance <ServiceName> -UserName <UserName> -Password (Read-Host "Enter Password" -AsSecureString)
- New-NAVServerUserPermissionSet -PermissionSetId SUPER -ServerInstance <ServiceName>-UserName <UserName>
Task 2: Configure Business Central Server.
- Set the ClientServicesCredentialType to NavUserPassword.
- Set-NAVServerConfiguration -ServerInstance <ServiceName> -KeyName ClientServicesCredentialType -KeyValue NavUserPassword
- Restart the server instance.
